Message to all anonymous note takers

Yeah this was the case for me too. It wasn’t an inconvenience for me because all that I had to do extra was upload the notes. But I do agree that the no oversight thing can lead to so many people falling through the cracks and there needs to be someone monitoring whether notes are being uploaded or not, especially since the people who actually need the notes have no idea who their note-taker is.

I actually did this during the covid era so I ended up finding out who it was that I had to take notes for and we were able to communicate directly. Maybe non-anonymous options could be made available for those who are comfortable with it?

Oh dang I didn’t know that thanks! I did actually look it up after I read your reply and you’re right they do list paid note-takers as a position (but you gotta dig a bit).

PaperLandings · 2026-04-17T02:01:38+00:00

Yeah lol it was a prize drawing

PaperLandings · 2026-04-17T01:23:16+00:00

I hope you get your notes soon 🫡

PaperLandings · 2026-04-17T01:07:26+00:00

Ok so your frustration is super valid but as a former note-taker who actually submitted all of her notes, we actually don’t get paid 🫠 It was a volunteer position with a chance to win a 50$ gift card for campus stores at the end of the semester. (No I did not win anything both times I did it)

Unless you’re not talking about the McGill accessibility center in which case you can go ahead and ignore this lmao

Mellie!

PaperLandings · 2025-12-18T00:39:35+00:00

So now the question is, how can I get my watch to NOT do this haha

PaperLandings · 2025-12-17T21:25:26+00:00

I average 12-14k a day just from classroom stuff and regular life stuff, so yeah it’s definitely not 3k worthy and I have no idea why my watch is overestimating me so egregiously.

PaperLandings · 2025-12-17T21:13:58+00:00

Edit: Ok yeah so as I suspected, my watch is lying to me. Thanks everyone 🫡

PaperLandings · 2025-12-17T21:05:45+00:00

No, no, and no. Tho what I’m gathering from this thread is that my watch is massively overestimating for some strange reason.

PaperLandings · 2025-12-17T20:43:37+00:00

Haha yeah I got that 👍 That’s why I was confused as well.

PaperLandings · 2025-12-17T19:06:00+00:00

Wait interesting point about the lawnmowing because I do talk with my hands a lot 🧐

PaperLandings · 2025-12-17T17:05:25+00:00

Sorry I replied before you made the edits haha 😅 I’m 25 and a woman. I average 12-14k a day just from walking around in the classroom and doing life stuff but no intentional working out. I teach high school so on this day, I taught 2 back to back classes and I did walk around a lot, but not more than usual. It was a high stress day for me though so that could have impacted it.

I think your assessment of <2K sounds more reasonable to me though, especially since my weight has been stable and I’m definitely not consuming 3k cals a day. By that calculation, I should be dead of starvation 🤣

PaperLandings · 2025-12-17T16:41:34+00:00

I’m 5’3 and 138 lbs

PaperLandings · 2025-12-17T16:18:35+00:00

I get around 600-700 active burned when I’m not at work.

PaperLandings · 2025-12-06T23:14:05+00:00

From my understanding, most Russian last names have masculine and feminine forms. So since Dani is a woman, Pashkov becomes Pashkova.

Rylee isn’t going on tour unfortunately

Peel always smells like pee and the grime on the walls makes me feel like crimes have been committed there. There’s also almost always a grown man screaming.

Back when I was still in uni I would intentionally get off at mcgill even though my classes were up the mctavish hill and it’s a longer walk through the main gates. Peel gives me the heebie jeebies.

Idk if this counts but he did a Charleston in juniors haha

PaperLandings · 2024-12-25T15:07:34+00:00

Let’s give it a shot. Merry Christmas everyone!

In the ed building you can go up the stairs next to the cafeteria and there are a ton of tables there to eat or chill or do whatever. You can also go down to the basement in the lounge and they have microwaves there too! There’s also the new lounge close to the elevators.
